This was not good news for someone 63 years old who was used to living off $90,000 a year but life is what it is. I was given a fairly decent termination package considering I had been with the company for over twenty years but even that payment did not last for very long.

I have applied for many jobs but in South Carolina there is at least 100 people vying for every position I have applied for to date.

I have been looking at the internet marketing field for several months hoping to find something that will assist in paying mortgage and putting food on the table. To date I have made a few dollars but nothing that will offer any relief.

The intent of this blog is to go through my daily activities and the programs I have entered so as to help others along the way that are in a similar situation I have found myself living in. Living on the poor side is an absolute accurate statement. Money has now came to an end. Now it is put up or find another way of making a living.

My background should have made me a sure fit into the Internet and Computer market place. I have a master’s degree in Computer Science and have been interfacing with people all through my career. I know about marketing and I know people.

To date I have spent well over $15,000 and made less than $500 in return, notg a good ROI.

I have worked with a few gurus along the way but I think they are more interested in taking my money than they are to really help. Here is a good one for you. Several gurus use the term OPM, Other People’s Money. If you don’t have a credit card then get one and apply that money to the future. I tried that route. I got a credit card just to use for internet marketing. To date I have not actually used the card and it has cost me over $500. Every month they send me another bill whether I use the card or not. My credit is not that good at the moment so to use the card and make extra payments just doesn’t make sense to me.

This blog is just the initial blog to introduce myself. Hopefully I can update this blog every couple of days just to keep you abreast with my activities. Currently I have several websites that are being promoted through ListAuction, ListJoe’s, and several other medias, even made a few dollars on these adventures but nothing to write home about at this time.

If you can offer any support for my efforts, that do not cost me an arm and a leg, please feel free to respond to this blog.

Saturday March 07, 2009 - Update

Spent most of the day reviewing email ads that have been coming to from ListJoe’s, ListAuction, and a few other areas. Interesting observation most ads are looking for subscribers to support the advertiser for free. Trust me, there is nothing free in life unless it is us giving these people our support. Free to them but not free to us. Over the past few months I have subscribed to many of these websites, sure the money to become a non-free member is not so much, but they really add up. I am now in the process of getting rid of more than half of these subscriptions. ($15 per month times 20 subscriptions adds up to $300 which I can use on other things. If I was using the services it would be different). Please watch out for these guys. I bought one piece of software for a one-time cost of $97 only to find out later that I was paying $97 per month for something. I am still trying to figure that one out. They gave me a pdf file, which by the way was very good and I would recommend it to all newbies, but I have never received anything else from them, only an extraction out of my debit card for $97 per month.

Another observation today, most people are running the same add. I guess they believe the old adage that it takes seven times to actually sink a sale. True these sites are getting a lot of hits if everyone reads their emails. Most of the time I scan them for credits so I can accumulate credits to run my own add. Yes, some of my ads are exactly like the other ads but I have others that I run as well.

On my next update I will discuss affiliate marketing and what a racket I think that is.

Later

Written by Dr. Suzanne Gudakunst, the essence of this top secret diet plan is that fat and excess weight is the result of parasites living in your body. Although everybody has them, if left to breed and multiply inside your stomach, small and large intestines and colon, they will eventually cause you to puff up, gain lots of weight, get sick more often, and will ultimately take many, many years off your life.

Dr. Suzanne makes a compelling case, and goes onto to reveal a simple step-by-step detox dieting plan that will help people rid their bodies of these harmful parasites - which will not only help you lose weight but will also help your body`s internal processes function better.

The book also sets out to educate the reader in weight loss as a whole (rather than just reveal the secret), and as such, Dr Suzanne provides great advice on nutrition and maintaining a healthy diet.

7 FACTS You Must Realize If You’re Going To Finally Lose That Stubborn Fat, Keep It Off For Good & Get Your Best Body Ever With A Flatter Sexy Stomach…

By Rob Poulos, Fat Loss & Fitness Expert, Creator of ‘Fat Burning Furnace’

1. You WON’T lose fat or look your best by just eating low carb or low fat diets. The truth is, fat loss comes down to how much you eat. I’ll show you an easy way to trick your body into eating less & burning more with these delicious foods that satisfy your hunger cravings…

2. Long cardio or aerobic workouts several days a week are the WORST WAY to burn fat. I’ll show you how to triple your fat loss by exercising in the complete OPPOSITE manner for less than 1 hour a week with no separate cardio at all…

3. 1000’s of crunches, sit ups, or those crappy infomercial abs gizmos WILL NOT burn your belly fat or give you those six pack abs. I’ll show you how you’ll burn belly fat 5 times faster by using certain full body exercises that don’t actually target your abs at all…

4. Going to bed hungry is one of the WORST THINGS YOU CAN DO.  I’ve found you can boost a super powerful fat loss hormone in your body by eating the right type of tasty little dish an hour or so before you go to sleep…

5. The “fat burning zone” you see on most cardio machines is actually the LAST THING you want to follow to burn the most body fat.  You will burn fat and calories for up to 3 days like we do with a VERY DIFFERENT kind of quick workout…   

6. You don’t need separate cardio AND strength training to lose fat.  This keeps you working out 4-6 days a week…way too much for anyone with a life!  I’ve found you will save hours and burn off fat permanently  in the unique fat burning workout described above…

7. Trying to ”tone” your body by using light weights or high reps is a BIG WASTE OF TIME.  You will experience ZERO results this way.  But you will sculpt sexy lean muscle that will burn your stored body fat for energy for years to come with this 1 major trick…

As a former acne sufferer, author Mike Walden recognises that the majority of acne cures focus merely on the symptoms of acne, but very few (if any) actually focus on permanently fixing the root cause. And that`s what Acne No More sets out to achieve.Walden`s approach to acne is to tackle it from a holistic and multi-dimensional perspective, and as a result, the Acne No More program is a unique, step-by-step holistic treatment, consisting of several sub-plans each designed to tackle a different factor responsible for acne, with the main idea of the treatment focusing on using the power of the body and the mind to help the skin heal itself from the inside out.

Acne No More guides you through the entire process of getting rid of your acne holistically, with the end goal being smooth and acne-free skin, without having to bear the costs and side effects of conventional medications. The result of over four years of research and experiment, the Acne No More program has now helped thousands of people worldwide.

Having suffered from acne for many years, the author of You Can Clear Your Acne researched the latest in nutrition and supplements to find a way to clear his own skin. And the answers are surprisingly simple! Mr X Acne describes which three foods you must avoid to remain acne free, and he also recommends three `super supplements` that work to naturally manipulate your hormones so that acne can`t occur.

The author takes a firm stance against over-the-counter acne products, believing that the companies who sell them are purely out to make money, rather than clear people’s skin. But he does recommend one cleansing ingredient near the end of the book that can be found in most people`s kitchens (and costs pennies) which is more effective for acne than most $100 cleanser systems on the market.
